Why are there so many broken tile pieces laying around? Get rid of them!

Dobies and Border Collies are the only dogs I know of that do weird stuff like this - both breeds are highly intelligent and quirky. I'd say, just remove all the tiles from his sight. I had a border collie that played with an aluminum cooking pot, took it everywhere with her and guarded it like a puppy.

Your dog is so cute. I would take the tile pieces and place them where he can't see or get to them. This will eliminate the barking at them. My dogs do the same with firewood but they don't bark too long for they begin to chew it up instead.

Get rid of the tile piece - usually tile that is being used is attached to something. Out of sight out of mind.

i think that you should say bad dog and yell a little so he knows that is not right or like get his favorite treat and try to move him away from the tiles. if you yell a little and pat him a little that mit work too.
i think it's really cute what he dose but i see that's a problem.
i hope these suggestion helps you

Your daughter and son purely MOVED. That brought about them rigidity, and the canine are reacting to that rigidity. Have your daughter and grandson feed them irresistable cope with nutrition, by using hand for some days. Cooked fowl consistently works for me....they could walk over warm coals for it. additionally, take some long walks, along with your new relatives "%.". Letting the canine browse around, taking it sluggish, such as you're "looking" mutually. which will help the canine get a feeling of all human beings being "%.". additionally, while your canine bark, tell your daughter to yawn...you do it too, and look away, or perhaps turn your back or slightly shrink back out of your daughter and son in regulation.. this is an illustration that announces , i'm so comfortable, i'd desire to easily take a nap of their presence. If the canine bark aggressively and improve, you purely placed your palms on your hips, and block them bodily along with your physique on a similar time as you say sssshhh NO, and step in direction of the canine. allowing them to understand, which you're blocking off such habit. Your shy shaky one gets extra constructive, while the rigidity she's so sensative to, slows down. you would be able to desire to furnish her some Nature's Sunshine "misery scientific care" flower essesnces drops.... you may get them at maximum wellbeing nutrition shops i think of there's a line to the NS website on my web content.. you additionally can watch the canine Whisperer, Cesar Milan's movies, he's great at getting human beings and canine to understand. i'm founding father of SugarNSpice Chihuahuas, and that i've got 12 grandkids and new toddler chihuahuas frequently... and others in for boarding , coach or breeding. So I completely get your problems. in case you have extra questions you may email me from my profile, or call me from my website. it would simmer down in some days to a week, and your nuclear relatives would be "previous information" . In ninety days the canine would have forgotten they ever did no longer stay there. take excitement in having your grandson and daughter !!! Your canine will study to.

Give him something else to carry for a start.! Then get some training discs, which use negative reinforcement, and train him to them. They are very useful for other things too.
